I fell through the tunnel and brought my family to live a good life
Chapter 235 Spicy ChickenIn the past few days, Xu Congyi has been staying at home painting whenever she has free time during the day and at night. She does not go into the space during the day, but stays in her own little house. In this way, if someone comes to ask her about raising chickens at home, she can come out of the house at the first time.
"Brother Xu! Yi Yi! Are you home?" After waking up from lunch break, Xu Congyi heard someone calling her in the yard, so she came out of the room.
Seeing that the person coming was the village chief, Xu Congyi hurriedly went to greet him, "Uncle village chief, I am the only one at home. Grandpa and my father have gone to clean the chicken coop and rabbit house. You can tell me if you have anything to say."
The village chief smiled and handed a piece of paper to Xu Congyi. "Yiyi, look, this is the result of the statistics I gathered after I came back from your place this morning. I was worried that not many people would respond, but I didn't expect that everyone would be so enthusiastic and every household was willing to participate in the chicken raising project. I recorded the quantity in detail according to the needs of each household. You see, six households want fifty chicks, ten households want thirty, and another ten households want fifteen, which adds up to a total of 750 chicks!"
Xu Congyi didn't expect that so many people would get involved, and she was very happy. "Uncle village chief, I will go back to the house and write down these numbers. You can keep a copy of this paper." Xu Congyi was about to go back to the house to get paper and pen.
However, the village chief smiled and shook his head. He patted Xu Congyi on the shoulder and said, "Yi Yi, I'll give this to you. I have kept a backup copy at home, so don't worry." After all, as a village chief who has been working for many years, he still knows to keep a backup.
After seeing off the village chief, Xu Congyi thought about it and decided to go to the chicken coop. She put away the drawings in the house, closed the door, and walked towards the chicken coop.
When she arrived at the chicken coop, she saw Grandpa and Daddy just cleaning the rabbit house and preparing to enter the chicken coop. Xu Congyi quickly called them and took a few quick steps towards them.
Hearing the call, Hunter Xu and Old Man Xu raised their heads at the same time and looked in the direction of the voice. When he saw that it was his daughter, Hunter Xu's face immediately bloomed with a kind smile, and the doubts in his eyes also dissipated. "Yi Yi, what's the hurry?"
Xu Congyi took a deep breath and told her grandfather and father exactly what happened when the village chief came to visit her. When she mentioned the number "750", Xu the hunter's expression froze instantly, his mouth opened into an "O" shape, and his eyes were full of disbelief.
"Yes, Daddy. I'm thinking about how we can properly place these chicks and ensure that they can be delivered to every household safely. I think we can put them in the yards of the homes first, but not all at once. We can do it in batches, such as releasing some in the morning and some in the afternoon. This way, we can avoid attracting unnecessary attention and suspicion, and ensure that every family can get the chicks on time."
Hearing this, Old Man Xu nodded approvingly and added, "Yi Yi is right. We can't let these 750 chicks suddenly appear in front of everyone. That would easily cause unnecessary trouble. After all, we borrowed the chicks in the name of Mr. Tang, so we have to be careful. Moreover, it is indeed unreasonable for so many chicks to appear in the village at the same time. How can a car that big be able to carry so many at once?"
After some discussion, the three generations of grandparents and grandchildren finally determined the specific time and method of sending the chicks. After the discussion, Xu Congyi prepared to go home, and he had to go back to tell his grandmother and mother about this matter. Old man Xu looked at the back of his granddaughter leaving, and couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion. He realized that he was really old, and the baby who once nestled in his arms had now grown into a beautiful young lady, not only allowing his family to live a good life, but also leading the whole village to live a good life together.
When she got home, Xu's mother and Li Dahua had not returned yet, so Xu Congyi went back to her room to continue drawing. After drawing for a while, her mind was full of raising chickens, so she simply stopped drawing, put away the drawing, and went back to the kitchen.
Since her mind was full of scenes of raising chickens, she might as well make a dish related to chicken. After much thought, she decided to make spicy diced chicken. This dish is not only delicious, but also can satisfy her desire for spicy taste. After all, it has been a while since she tasted such a stimulating taste bud enjoyment.
Xu Congyi acted quickly, taking out several large chicken legs from the space and cutting them into even-sized dices. Then, she skillfully prepared the marinade and marinated the chicken. At the same time, she did not forget to prepare the ingredients that would enrich the taste of the dish: bright red dried chilies, crispy Sichuan peppercorns, and onions, ginger, garlic and other flavor enhancers.
While the meat was being marinated, Xu's mother and Li Dahua also came back. Seeing Xu Congyi in the kitchen, they quickly washed their hands and went in to help. When it was almost time for dinner, Xu's mother was responsible for frying other dishes, and Li Dahua was responsible for making pancakes. As the stove fire was lit, the oil temperature in the pot gradually increased. Xu Congyi poured the marinated diced chicken into the pot. In an instant, an enticing aroma filled the kitchen. She quickly stir-fried it so that each piece of diced chicken could be evenly heated and become golden and crispy. Then, she added dried chili peppers and peppercorns. With a "sizzling" sound, the aroma of the chili peppers and peppercorns was instantly stimulated, perfectly blending with the freshness of the diced chicken.
Finally, Xu Congyi sprinkled chopped green onions and minced garlic and stir-fried them evenly. A dish of spicy diced chicken with good color, aroma and taste was ready.
